What should I do about my step daughter?

Boyfriend may leave here with something, could be a baby.

The hard decision is usually the right one. You can’t side with her so she will leave you alone. You need to back his decision. Don’t help her wreck her future.

She’s under age call and report him.

Well sounds like they couldn’t afford a lawyer anyways so ya tell them you’ll see them in court.

The husband is correct, shot at this point I’d find a way to make so she can’t touch it to 21

End the drama, she’s of legal age and by law is entitled to the money, it’ll be worse for everyone if it involves lawyers. Pray that she’ll grow up and become responsible real soon. The more you fight, the worse it’ll get. Live your life and let her grow up

Hubby’s doing the rite thing .stand by his desion and support him

Right…do nor give in.

I lol agree with your husband let her live life the way she chooses hopefully she will realize life is not so easy. If you want to do something. Maybe try to talk about boyfriends actions

Let him parent his child. That’s not your place no matter how involved in her life you are. He’s doing what he said and sticking to it. You don’t give in just to shut a child up. If she wants to destroy her life, let her🤷🏼‍♀️ you cannot do anything to change her choices, all you can do is give your advice and let her decide what she will do with it. However, she is in a abusive situation, she is not capable of thinking for herself in the situation she is in, so of course she is causing drama, cause I am pretty sure he’s in her ear giving her issues behind it. She is still a minor so in reality her father still has a say in what she can and cannot do… November is coming soon, so it will be over soon enough. You getting involved and just giving into her demands will potentially put a strain on your marriage. Just stay out of it.

Stand by your husband

Back het father up, of course. He should have a conversation with her boyfriend too. He sounds like a major problem. He obviously doesn’t have your daughter’s best interest in mind.

Legally you can not touch it. It is her father’s responsibility to report what happens with that money since he is her over-seer. If she is 18 he needs to just let her have it and be done with it. But until she is 18 he is responsible for her daily needs with that money so if she is not living in his home he needs to prove he is paying her bills with it or supplying her needs.

Leave it in the account. When she gets old enough to have give it. She wastes it, that’s on her. Or… leave it in account for when she “grows” up & tel her it belongs to her dad for life expenses since her mom passed.

Call police have him arrested for rape of your daughter and see where that goes

if she isnt 18 you have all rights to withhold it and if your state allows and things are out of hand you may need a counselor or put the money in a special account so once she is thinking clear not with someone else coaching her around it will be there for her. Its not easy once they turn 18, not much you can do, i know but if you can prove she’s not thinking for herself maybe a judge would agree

Dad is in the right. She’d blow through the money in a couple hours, a few days at most or it would go straight to the boyfriend.
Stick to your guns and don’t let her have it until she’s 21 like someone else said.
By then, she will hopefully straighten up.

The bf is abusive, get her ass out of there & have him arrested, can’t understand why you’re asking about the money when she’s being treated so badly.

Stick with your husband

Your husband is right.

Your doing the right thing sticking to your guns! However I’m very worried about your daughter staying with a controller. Abuse may be on the horizon.

I have a friend who’s husband was killed in Afghanistan over 10 year ago her daughter did the same and her daughter is still doing what she wants and still doesn’t have her money one day she will come around and the money will be waiting for her

Don’t you dare. This is between them.

Stick to what you are doing, the judge will see it your way

Stick to your guns…she’s not in a responsible posi tion. Her boyfriend probab ly wants to ‘help’ her with the money…

Let her dad handle it.He told her what would happen and it’s not your place to do anything against his wishes.

Keep the money. Put it in an IRA until she turns 30. Period. She can then go figure it all out by herself. Tell her where the Social Security office is

Don’t give in she needs to learn this account was set up for a good reason n purpose in life if she’s strapped for cash she should get a job

Mind your neck. Your husband is 100% correct

I’d never ask Facebook. I’d listen and work with husband.

Don’t do it. The drama will only get worse.

Stick with your husband’s plan. The boyfriend will blow her money and be gone.

Is this a Brittany thing

Keep to the rules of husband made with daughter and put restraining order to stop harassment

This woman has no legal say in the matter. The child is not even 18 and is making very bad choices. Don’t enable her. Stay out of it unless you plan on being his EX wife in short order and face charges of theft and interference in parental rights.

If she wants to emancipate, she usually has to prove that she can stay in school and hold a job. I would say get a family law attorney. He needs to stick to his guns.

Stay strong! Stand by your man.

Make her wait,your husband is right ,

Make her wait until she’s 18yrs …

Wait until she’s 18 because in spite of her being in your house you are still responsible for her the Lord entrusted you as a parent to do the right thing for her well being Pray and let him guide you with her.

I cannot give you give you a good answer , I would see a counselor , your preacher, and I hope that you can help your daughter—God Bless :pray:t2:

Ignore her, shes a baby and acting like one.

First if all. Do not. I mean do not give a dime. Second call the sheriff and report this adult with a child situation. Why you ask. Your little girl is in danger. This guy is for ing her to do these things. Fix it now before you are identifying her body. This dude wants the money. She dont care about the money. Ir this would have been an issue when her bio mom passed but it wasn’t. The cildmolester (boyfriend) is your monster issue here.

I wouldn’t give it to her. That money is to help support her food, health, care, sports, ect. not for her to spend on what she wants. Besides my aunt ended up having to pay social security a bunch of money back when her son dropped out of school. So I would check into that before you give her anything

Stick to hubby rules because her boyfriend will use her up and leave her, but talk to her about coming back home and going to school. God Bless

Put the money in a separate account for her…if she spends it and runs out before the next check comes…she will.be broke…let her control.her finances…she wants to play grown up, let her…she will.come.bqck when she sees life isn’t a bowl of cherries…

Some of these kids end up being killers with their boyfriends! Give her the money and wash your hands off her!!;

She’s not mental fit to have control of it .ask lawyer about making dad legal guardian of funds brittany spears was wack job to till she grew up

If she turns 18 in November, continue to hold your guns. Don’t give that spoiled brat one damn penny before she turns 18. And I would even wait until the very minute that she was born on that day before I would give her anything.

My story almost exactly except I got pregnant at 16. Let her have it. When the checks started coming to me, I legally had to keep going to school to keep recieving my checks and if I didnt provide proof to the SS administration they cut me off, if I missed school they notified the SS Administration. So even if he does let her have it she would likely lose it on her own anyway for not going to school. Lesson would be learned then wouldn’t it.

I agree with your husband, but it will be a lost cause as far as court and the money goes.
The money is to be used for her living expenses.
I would tell her that he will use it to pay for some of her bills, up to the monthly stipend. Anything from before she moved out you can put a claim on as it was used for her living expenses.
Unless she’s in school, that money will end when she turns 18.

do not give in to her, its the boyfriend acting on her, she needs to dump himm while she still has a life

Time to spank her ass don’t give a damn how old she is if you don’t want to do that then it’s time for her to get her own place

Dont go against your husband, he is right. Hes teaching her about responsibility. That money is in his name not yours.

Sounds like she told him about her money and he wants it! He will take it from her and dump her eventually.

Stick to your guns and know that when you do give her the money , it’s like setting it on fire. It will be gone in an instant.
I feel for you, as I can see the journey you are going on with this girl… God Bless you all.

It’s sad when kids get in with the wrong sort. I agree I would stick with my husband on hat scores out the money or I would offer to meet her and buy her food clothes electric and gas on the card etc but not cash :+1:

Be neutral in the series of scenes that will unfold. It’s a father verses daughter drama scenes, with time everything will be alright. Don’t do what will turn your husband against nor your daughter against you.

She’s entitled to her money. At 18 she’s an adult and if she wants to blow her money, she’ll pay the price afterwards.

What would we do?
Everyone is different but what SHOULD be done is
…to get REAL, PROPER advice from a real professional so that her life is private and not spread on social media.
That’s what a GOOD mum would do

Once she turns 18 there’s nothing you can do other than give her her own money. It’s not yours or your husbands. It’s hers.

Don’t you dare draw the money out just to satisfy and curb her behaviour not only will she regret it so will you and your husband

At 18, it’s legally hers. Social security does NOT screw around.

That’s why children shouldn’t have real dates until they’re 18

It’s the father’s choice. Leave it alone.

Your husband is right. It’s his decision not yours.

Your husband is her dad. Let him handle the situation.

Don’t give in to her childish behavior. She’s stupid to be with the mean boyfriend.

Get a backbone. Your husband is definitely doing the right thing

Let dad stand his ground, she will thank him later. She will soon open her eyes about that controlling bf
